Urban Hiking
Expanding our horizons in the neighborhood, we decided to walk to the Chatham-Kent Library, on the corner of Queen & Cross (I love all the English names!). We figured it to be about a mile each way, and we were pretty close because it only took 20 minutes to get there. We base our distances on the walks we used to take in the Eldon Lyon Park in Bethany, Oklahoma. We walked the posted 1.5 mile trail weekly for the 3 years we lived there. As you can tell, we are pretty low key about our fitness routine; our philosophy is that any movement is better than no movement. One must cross the Thames River on the way to the library, a murky river just as it's namesake in England. On the way home we discovered a small park behind the bridge. Across the river, behind Martin, is Tecumseh Park and the Chatham Armoury, as well as a play area for children. Claire & Emily would like that.
